Matt Schaub’s brutal season took a turn for the worst in the third quarter of Sunday’s game versus the Rams when the Houston Texans quarterback suffered an ankle injury with his team down 31-6.

To make matters worse, Houston Chronicle writer John McClain indicated that a number of Texans fans cheered when their starting quarterback was injured after being sacked by Rams defensive end Chris Long.

Houston fans are lowest of the low. Schaub sacked and hurt and fans cheered. TJ Yates in and they’re cheering loudly.

Schaub, who came into Sunday’s contest with four straight games with an interception returned for a touchdown, had an incident at his Houston area home earlier this week where an angry fan (or fans) reportedly trespassed on his property. The exact specifics have been disputed, but Houston police reported that Schaub’s family filed a report on Wednesday regarding two separate trespassers.

Schaub actually hadn’t played too poorly before his injury, completing 15 of 21 passes for 186 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions. The embattled quarterback’s replacement, T.J. Yates, certainly didn’t fare better, throwing a pick six on his first drive and continuing the team’s streak for a fifth straight week.

Yates came back and threw another interception on his second drive, finding Rams cornerback Janoris Jenkins in the end zone.
